We're officially more than a week into summer, and it's also the time of year when some parts of the world don't see a sunset for days, weeks or even months.

North of the Arctic Circle, parts of northern Alaska, Iceland and northern Norway won't see a sunset until closer to the end of summer thanks to the earth's tilt on its axis.

Because of the excessive sunshine, Storm Shield put together a list of things to do if the sun never set on your day.
